Cystosperma johnstonii is a tropical aroid native to East Africa, known for its
large, upright leaves and strong venation. The leaves are broad, medium to deep
green, and held on sturdy petioles, giving the plant a structured, vertical
growth habit as it matures. Unlike many commonly sold aroids, this species is
less widely cultivated and valued by collectors for its rarity and robust form.
It prefers bright, indirect light, warm temperatures, and evenly moist but
well-draining soil to support steady growth.
Grower’s Choice means you’re getting one of the strongest, most consistent
plants from our current crop. These varieties grow reliably well for us, and
every plant is handpicked by our growers and checked for quality before it’s
packed. Instead of choosing a specific plant from a photo, you receive one that
matches the size, color, and overall look shown in the listing — chosen by the
people who know the plants best.
